    A lot of people also think you’re trying to distract us from the Epstein files

      He’s completely serious.

      Everything is awful. None of it’s for show.

    I want him to die. Preferably screaming, bloody, and on fire.

    I’ll have to settle for quietly in relative comfort. But dead is dead so I’ll fuckin take it.

        Yes. That’s how cults work.

          Mormonism survived the death of their first leader.

            That is patently false. Mormonism splintered when John Smith died and there was a lot of infighting over leadership. Like it’s easy to check with the least effort.

            https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Succession_crisis_(Latter_Day_Saints)

            The only reason it survived was that Brigham Young was charismatic and managed to keep it together. Who’s gonna do the same for MAGA?

              Nothing I said was false, your own comment confirmed it. I didn’t say Trump will have a replacement for maga, but the precedence is set. It’s possible they’ll keep going. If not exactly maga they’ll still be awful ignorant people.

            The Mormons are mobsters disguised as a religion. Not the same thing. It’s a lot harder to find a true believer Mormon than a true believer MAGAt.

              I grew up mormon, it’s full of true believers. I do hope they implode soon though, they can only change the story so many times.

                I grew up around Mormons and currently live in one of the Mormoniest places on earth. There definitely are true believers to be found at the bottom of the pyramid. Otherwise, most of the ones I worked with knew damn well it is a racketeering scheme, and they’re playing along.

                  That I believe. I’ve never dealt with anyone above the stake (area) level. I can only imagine trying to keep the belief while knowing more stuff than they tell the masses.

        Yep. It’ll splinter into factions. Tear itself apart with infighting.

      His legs are probably giving him pain.

      I hope they are, anyway.

        Those Air Force One stairs are awfully steep.

        I can’t wait for the news coverage: The cemetery is begging people to stop urinating and defecating on Trump’s grave
